The Old Time Radio Show

Every long journey ever taken began with a first step.   And every old time radio show began with a theme song and unique dialogue designed to instantly identify the show.

That formula was true for all genres.  Take westerns for instance.  How did the famous old time radio westerns begin?  Do you remember the theme song?  The announcers opening words?

You say your memory is pretty good?  Let’s see — here’s one for you:

• This first show was considered a juvenile western.
• It aired between 1942 and 1945 from New York City.
• The show was based on a character created by O’Henry.
• The two main stars were Jackson Beck and Louis Sorin.
• The main character was a romantic leading man, who, with his fat comedic partner, wandered around the west.
• The title character was a ladies man and always got the girl at the end.
